Chargers’ Staley doubts WR Allen will play vs. KC

Los Angeles Chargers coach Brandon Staley said it’s “not looking great” for injured wide receiver Keenan Allen to play in Thursday night’s game in Kansas City.

Allen left the Chargers’ Week 1 win over the Las Vegas Raiders in the first half with a hamstring injury.

An MRI did not reveal any major damage, a source told ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler.

While Staley declined to say definitively that Allen won’t play Thursday, the short week doesn’t work in the wide receiver’s favor and the team doesn’t want Allen to aggravate the injury.
